Fancy Garbage,
This board gave me nothing but problems from the start. The Raid utility is hard to get into, the fan controls don’t apply in any intelligent way and my front panel audio connectors freeze the system if I plug/unplug while powered up. The chipset SATA ports (though not the Marvell SATA ports) are squeezed together on the edge of the board at a 90 degree angle, making them hard to access and causing most brands of SATA cables to not physically fit next to eachother. The USB 3.0 at midboard was intermittent, no matter how many times I checked the connection.
On the positive side, the board looks cool and comes with a nice 3.5″ to 2.5″ bay adapter that will hold your SSD and give you 2 front-panel USB 3.0 ports.
